Verizon to Offer Unlimited Data Plans Nowadays

Subscribers also have the option of $45 per line for a family of four that totals to $180 a month.

The plan will include HD video and 4G hotspots. Customers on unlimited plans will likely use more data than when they were limited to just 5 Gb or 10 Gb per month, which would cause crowding on Verizon’s network. To help you make that choice, let’s answer some questions.

Sprint and T-mpbile do not put a cap on data but they throttle usage speeds instead, giving the consumer 500 Kbps for music, 2 Mbps for gaming and 480p video streaming, while AT&T has a similar 22GB data cap after which it lowers the speeds. You get tethering with the plan, as well, but you don’t get unlimited high-speed tethering with it, only 10GB per month before dropping down to 3G speeds.

Verizon’s existing plans, including S, M, L, XL, and XXL tiers, will remain available to new and existing customers.

It should be mentioned that all carriers that offer unlimited plans doesn’t technically mean unlimited per se. However, the Sprint’s plan has a catch: the cost goes up after the initial year, but the Verizon representative assure that the cost of Verizon’s plan will not go up following year. AT&T now only offers unlimited wireless plans to DirecTV or U-verse customers, but those with grandfathered unlimited data plans have seen increasing costs. In fact, last July, Verizon announced they would be removing users who used more than 100GB of data each month off of their unlimited plans. T-Mobile’s boundless ONE arrangement costs $70 every month for the primary line, $50 every month for the second line, and $20 every month for each extra line, with expenses and charges included. Verizon had previously said it had no interest in unlimited plans, but its wireless customer growth tailed off at the end of previous year. Verizon Unlimited is slightly costlier than Sprint and T-Mobile, but it should be worth it considering its wider network coverage across the region.

Customers taking Verizon Unlimited will be able to add a connected smart watch, GizmoPal, or other connected device for United States dollars 5 per month.
